Building Resilient Communities
Integrated Flood Resilience and Adaptation Project Livelihood Component
To help enhance productive, inclusive, and resilient natural
resource-based livelihoods while restoring degraded watersheds for flood resilience
Our Components
1. Matching Grants for Enhancing Agricultural and Livestock-based Livelihoods.
These grants will enable cash-constrained farming communities to restore and diversify agriculture and livestock production, add value, and enhance market access. Support will be provided to demand-driven activities identified through community consultation that seek to promote climate-smart agriculture practices. Agricultural activities to be supported will include support for efficient water use. Details of the grant mechanism will be provided in the Project Implementation Manual (PIM).
2. Community Grants for Watershed Restoration.
These grants will enable the restoration of degraded watersheds. Specific interventions will include soil and water conservation, vegetative stream and riverbank protection, agro-forestry and reforestation, farmer-managed natural regeneration, and rehabilitation of degraded rangelands. Details of the grant scheme will be provided in the PIM.
